High blood sugar makes the blood an oxidizing agent, so it slowly oxidizes (burns) the tissues it contacts. Over a few months, persistent high blood sugar will burn the capillaries causing Diabetic Angiopathy. This in turn slowly kills off peripheral nerves (Diabetic Neuropathy), and then over the years, the glomeruli of the kidneys (Diabetic Nephropathy).
Neuropathy can result in lost feet, and Nephropathy can result in total kidney failure, so both should be avoided assiduously by keeping blood sugar levels low. Just how low is currently the subject of debate but a good starting point in your research could be made by using the page links, further down this page, listed under Related Links.

Can hyperglycemia lead to kidney failure?
Yes because of its ability to cause low blood pressure-------------------------------------Actually low blood pressure has nothing to do with it. High blood sugar damages the network of fine blood vessels found in the kidneys . It also causes the body to eliminate excess sugar throughurine, so the kidneys can become fatigued. Long periods of high blood sugar can lead to kidney damage that in turn may cause high blood pressure.
